Reviews
A Fun Day
The course is in very good shape. It is a beautiful tract. We had a fun day.
Memorial Day Weekend Round
Course was in great shape, fairways were a little patchy but place and play made it fair. Greens were in great shape and layout is challenging
Needs some TLC
Have played a lot ok Kentucky's state parks and this is by far the Worst conditioned. This place needs a lot of TLC all over. Staff was friendly, Cart Paths and that is about as far as it goes for the Pros. Most fairways were covered with I don't know what? Like they have never been treated. Greens were average at best.
Fairways are in rough condition and greens were super slow. I would recommend waiting until later in the season before checking this course out.
Love this place
Tee time for a single, first off the tee so I had the course to myself. Greens were in good shape, would’ve liked to have them roll a little faster. Fairways were pretty wet from all the rain we’ve been having but look like they’ll come in beautifully. Will be back mid-late May and see how it’s coming in.
Bunker wth rocks
Looked like the were major repairs to bunkers. Most of them filled wth gravel. Fairways still brown and patchy. Greens slow but good condition
Love this Course
I play My Old Kentucky Home 2-3 times each year and never a bad experience. Interesting layout and risk/reward opportunities at hole 13 and 17. If you keep ball in fairway you can score on this course. Looking forward to comin back
Old Kentucky
Nice course beautiful weather, course fairways still dormant but playable.
pretty good shape for this time of the year
the course was in pretty good shape for fall the greens putted good not to fast or slow there was a few leaves on them which is expected in the fall and the wind blowing them around they reseeded the tee boxes all but two the tee marker was in front of the ladies tee boxes overall still a good value for a round of golf in the fall
Temporary tees
They temporary tees and many were on slopes. Also the leaves were really bad, tough to find your ball
Leaves
Need to clean from fairways.
Greens were great and they reseeded tee boxes.
They are working on bunkers so in the spring this course will be nice.
